How often should you cut your hair? Discover all the tips for a thick and flowing hair!
We’ve all always heard that you should cut your hair regularly to get thick and healthy hair.
But how often should hair be cut? Even if we do not want to “give ourselves a drastic cut”, the hair to be healthy always needs a periodic “trim” at the hairdresser.
In this article you will find useful tips on how often to cut hair to make it grow strong and healthy.
Women’s hair: how often should it be cut?
If you’re wondering “how often do I have to cut my hair to grow?” the answer is often.
To make your hair healthy, strong and, yes, even longer, the secret is to cut it regularly, because in the part of the ends they tend to get damaged, dry and open in ugly split ends and a brittle hair is not the best to see.
Another trick to facilitate hair growth can be to use a scrub for the scalp, a significant help to make your hair long and healthy.
If you use dyes or have very fine or dull hair, you may need to trim it once a month as it is more prone to breakage.
In general, the frequency with which your hair should be cut, whether you want it long or not, can also vary based on factors such as the cut chosen, the texture and thickness of the hair.
What is certain is that if you see the ruined lengths it is time to run to the hairdresser and the maximum period should never exceed 6 months.
Short, medium and long cut
It’s been three months and your hair is long and flowing down your back? It’s time for a good trim! Long hair breaks more easily and tends to appear thinner towards the ends, especially if it has been treated with dyes.
Three months is perfect if you have a long but straight cut, if you have scaled them or if your hair is fine it is better to spend less time.
If you have healthy, undamaged hair of medium length to the shoulders, you just need to touch it up every 2 months to have a perfect style and a healthy hair.
More frequent cuts are necessary to keep in order a short style that can easily lose its shape, the same if you have curls, which only scissors can restore the right look without looking like a bush. According to hairdressers, if you opt for a look with bangs or to have an always tidy bob, 4/6 weeks is the right time to have a well-groomed style.
A precious help for the ends of your hair can come from Argan oil, applied between a visit to the hairdresser and the next, it is excellent for preventing split ends.
How often a man has to cut his hair
If you are a man and you want to keep a medium length cut in perfect condition, we recommend that you go to the barber every 4/6 weeks; if you love short cuts to the military every 2 weeks will be fine.
If you want to grow long hair, you can wait up to 8 weeks for split ends to show. In the early stages of stretching, your barber can give your hair a simple shape that will help your hair grow well, so you always look tidy during the growth process.
Going to the barber regularly will allow you to keep not only the shape of the cut, but also the edges in order, make the neck hair disappear and blend the sideburns at the sides, details that should never be overlooked.
Cut your hair means taking care of it
Always taking care of your hair, cutting it often, will give it a healthy and bright appearance. Always try to understand what your hair needs, using appropriate and good quality products. Heat protective sprays and conditioners are great for keeping your hair from drying out, allowing you to let more time pass between cuts.
